Sustainable development goals

Abstract

In recent years, technological development has made it possible to implement sustainability-oriented solutions in the agricultural sector, leading to significant improvements. The practical application of information and communication technologies and of blockchain technology in agriculture, gives a deeper digital meaning to agricultural challenges and possibilities. This article addresses the trinomial: technology, agriculture and sustainability. The present research reviews some examples of the application of those technologies in real-world scenarios, as well as their evolution and contribution to agricultural sustainability.
